Hello all. I'm pleased as punch to make my preliminary plans to visit NYC from Fri. June 20th--Mon. June 23rd, 2025. I'll be flying Southwest Airlines from Austin Bergstrom International to LGA. I've secured a reservation at the Paramount on West 46th St. It was the most reasonable rate I could find. I looked at two other places...the Mayfair (sold out) and the Washington Jefferson (closed, apparently). I am considering SMASH, Cabaret, maybe even Oh Mary. Conceivably, I could see a total of five show. I'd like to see at least one off--Broadway musical/play.

I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

As for Off-Bway, I'm looking forward to seeing The Jonathan Larson Project.
Have fun on your trip! I assume you'll be making your obligatory visit to the Ambassador?

I've secured my first show. I'll be at the Ambassador Theatre on Fri.; June 20 at 8:00 p.m. to see my favorite show, Chicago. That will make it #36 (since St. Patrick's Day 2011), plus one concert version in 2019. I'm getting closer to 40. I would like to meet one specific person who is more knowledgeable about all things Chicago. My plan is to head out to Marie's after the show.

off-Broadway? Titanique? The Play That Goes Wrong? The Jonathan Larson Project? I think you'd like Gypsy. Something new? Try Dead Outlaw, Death Becomes Her or Maybe Happy Ending.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

I saw Titanique the last time I was in town (Dec. 2023). I'll never forget it, because I had run like mad from that little theatre to get to the closest train. I mean I literally ran alll the way from the theatre. It was not fun. Of course, I got on my train and made it in time before the show began at the Ambassador.

I had contemplated seeing Cabaret, solely to see Natascia Diaz, but alas, she is no longer with the show. I looked at the off-Broadway listings. I am very much interested in seeing "Bus Stop" at the
Classic Stage Company on East 13th. (Is that the name of the theatre?) Is that on the Lower East Side? Just curious. I thinking very intently on SMASH for sure.
